Surrounded by Cotswold countryside near some spectacular towns and villages, Sloe Manor Cottage is a delightful original workers' cottage. Set in the peaceful village of Great Rollright there are walks from your doorstep, nearby luxury at members-only Soho Farmhouse, and a fabulous range of options for days out. Sloe Manor Cottage is full of character with its original beams and a fun-size door frame. A stay here is sure to be an adventure spotting celebrities in this exclusive area of the Cotswolds. Ideal for couples or small families, you can explore the surrounding area from Chipping Norton to Stow-on-the-Wold, Woodstock to Blenheim Palace.
Full Description
Tucked just off the village green in Great Rollright, Sloe Manor Cottage greets you with its traditional Cotswold stone exterior. It has been beautifully renovated using the original features of the cottage to create a characterful, yet modern holiday retreat.

Throughout you will find old wooden beams and there is a warming woodburner in the living room keeping you cosy on chillier nights. The simple and contemporary interiors contrast with statement furniture dotted across the cottage. You will feel at home in these comfortable surroundings, enjoying the quirks of modern living in a beautifully classic setting.

The gardens at Sloe Manor Cottage are split into two halves, one at each end of the cottage. There are lawned areas and space to sit to enjoy a morning coffee. Opposite Sloe Manor Cottage you can join the d’Arcy Dalton Way which guides you on a walk to Hook Norton where you can visit the award-winning brewery and the Rollright Stones can be reached along a circular walk. You can explore the rural countryside before heading to hip and trendy Chipping Norton, known by the locals as 'Chippy', for a fantastic evening.

Ground Floor


Entrance Hall:
Through the stable door, the entrance hall acts as a boot room with space to store coats, bags and wellies. This handy room has a bespoke bench making it easier for you to pull on your boots before heading out the door.

Living Room:
Two deep green velvet armchairs seat four in front of the wood-burning stove so you can gather in the evening with your favourite drink. The Smart TV provides your entertainment, or you can curl up with a book and cherish your time away.

Kitchen/Diner:
A central dining table comfortably seats four with plenty of space to serve delicious meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. The soft sage units complement the age of the property, but you have all of your modern conveniences here with an oven/hob, fridge and freezer and a dishwasher.

Shower Room:
Hidden away at the end of the cottage is the shower room. Surprising you with a burst of geometric tiling there is a shower, WC and sink.

First Floor


Bedroom One:
Ducking under the very low doorway, this bedroom opens into a spacious and peaceful room. This bedroom has a super king-size bed which can be split to create two single beds if required. You are sure to have an undisturbed night’s sleep with its neutral décor and comfortable bedding.

Bedroom Two:
With a king-size bed the second bedroom has gentle lighting creating a relaxing atmosphere.

Outside


The garden is a tale of two halves. Each end of the cottage has a lawned area with a gravelled terrace where you can sit out in fine weather. To the left of the cottage it is surrounded by a low stone wall, while the right side is fenced with a gate creating a secure space. On-street parking can be found opposite.

Lovely location, Chipping Norton is just 7 min away by car and there is a bus stop right outside the cottage too. Very quiet and peaceful village.

The house is very beautiful. It was very comfortable for us because we were going with two teenagers and the rooms were spacious and comfortable, as was the kitchen, since we had dinner and breakfast there every night.

We stayed 8 nights at Sloe Manor Cottage. The cottage had everything we hoped for: well equipped kitchen, very good bathroom, separate living room and kitchen, outdoor terraces and good beds. The cottage is an excellent base for trips in The Cotswolds. Most prime destinations are within one hours drive. We loved it! And many thanks to Becky, our fine host

We stayed 8 nights at Sloe Manor Cottage (parents + daughter 16 years old). The cottage had everything we hoped for: well equipped kitchen, a very good bathroom, a separate living room and kitchen, outdoor terraces and good beds. Great Rollright is a quiet little village. Chipping Norton is just a few kilometres away and has all the necessary shops such as a supermarket, bakery and coffee houses. The cottage is an excellent base for trips in The Cotswolds. Most prime destinations are within one hours drive. We loved it! And many thanks to Becky, our fine host.

We had a lovely time, the cottage was perfect and even when we arrived there were small touches that made the stay even more special. A perfect location and a lovely big kitchen. Heated floor for when you get out of the shower and lots of recommendations for local restaurants, pubs, and anything you need! Thank you again for a wonderful stay - we will be back!
